For CGTN reporter Sean Callebs, covering China's annual Two Sessions has always been a high-stakes challenge. But this year, advanced technology bridged a critical gap: real-time multilingual understanding. 'I could finally follow every word as deputies debated economic policies and governance plans without waiting for translations,' Callebs shared, highlighting new AI-powered earpieces and interactive tablets provided to journalists.
The tools, developed by Chinese tech firms, offer instant transcription and translation of discussions during the key political event. Analysts note this advancement reflects China's growing emphasis on transparency and global communication. Observers say such innovations will reshape how international audiences engage with policy dialogues, particularly for business professionals tracking regulatory changes or academics studying decision-making processes.
As Callebs observed delegates debating green energy investments and AI development strategies, his enhanced access generated deeper insights. 'You catch nuances in debates about cross-border trade agreements or supply chain resilience that text summaries might miss,' he remarked. This technological leap arrives as the Two Sessions increasingly addresses topics impacting global markets, from renewable energy to digital currency frameworks.
